We all love the outdoors and what it has to offer for our physical, mental, and emotional health. With the new restrictions in place we want to emphasize that we are still offering safe, accessible outdoor recreation activities, albeit in a reduced capacity. Throughout this year we have followed rigid COVID protocols which have put safety first for both clients and volunteers. We are continuing to do so to be able to provide outdoor opportunities for everyone and will continue to monitor and re-evaluate the situation as needed. If you are interested in a trip, but have questions or concerns, don't hesitate to contact us and we will work to provide our services in a way which with you are comfortable.

As cases are rising it is important to remember to stay safe and follow COVID protocols. An easy way to let people know what your bubble is and where your comfort level is at, is by wearing one of PRIME's colour coded social distancing bands. They are still selling these bands, with all proceeds supporting CRIS. If you are interested in getting some for yourself you can contact us to arrange! Thank you PRIME for your ongoing support!
